SQL Minifier

About this tool

Compress a SQL query into one compact line by collapsing line breaks and extra spaces, handy for logs and embedding.

Example

Input: SELECT id, name FROM users

Output: SELECT id,name FROM users

How to use

Paste or type your text into the box above, then read or copy the result. Everything runs privately in your browser, your text is never uploaded to a server.

How to use this tool

1. Paste your SQL query into the input box.
2. Review the compacted result in the output area.
3. Copy the minified SQL for logs, scripts, or embedding.
4. Edit the original query and run it again if you need a different compact form.

Step by step, what happens

1. The tool reads the SQL text exactly as you paste it, including line breaks and repeated spaces.
2. It removes unnecessary whitespace between tokens, while keeping the SQL structure readable to the parser.
3. Line breaks are collapsed into a single line, which makes the query shorter and easier to paste into compact places.
4. The minified result is shown immediately so you can copy it without doing any manual cleanup.

Worked example

Here is a simple query with line breaks and indentation that you might want to store in a log or config file.

Input: SELECT id, name FROM users WHERE active = 1;

1. The tool removes the line breaks between SELECT, FROM, and WHERE.
2. It trims the extra indentation and spaces around the query.
3. It keeps the SQL keywords, column names, and punctuation in place.

Tips and common mistakes

• Use this tool when you need a single-line SQL string for logs, templates, or embedding in code.
• It collapses whitespace, so do not rely on spacing for formatting or alignment in the output.
• Make sure your input is valid SQL first, because the tool does not fix syntax errors.
• If your query contains string literals, check the output carefully to confirm the text still looks exactly as expected.
